Characterization of a bacterial cellulose-silica nanocomposite prepared from agricultural waste products

Bacterial cellulose (BC) has attracted considerable scientific interest and can be modified, making it more widely useful in composites with guest nanoparticles. In this study, silica nanoparticles obtained from rice husks were used to prepare BC-silica composite aerogels (CAs) via a sol-gel method....
